Hartford Net Schedule Is Listed Today The Hartford Gorillas, scourge of Adams county high school basketball teams last season, face a rebuilding job as they prepare for their season opener Tuesday night, Nov. 5, at Union Center in Wells county. The Gorillas, sectional champions last year, went through their entire regular season schedule without a defeat, and sustained their only loss to a county team in the final game of the county tourney, when they were downed by the Berne Bears. Hartford went on to take the sectional crown, but was eliminated by Fort Wayne South Side in the opening round of the regional tourney. Coach Tom Agler lost five members of his sectional squad by graduation, including three regulars. Lost from the starting five were Dean Stahley and Bob Biberstein, both guards, and Larry Gene Dubach, forward. Other

Eisenhower bounced to his feet often to cheer on the Air Force eleven, but despite his encouragement, the service team lost, 20-0. Security Cartage Co. Head Named Officer FORT WAYNE — TO — Edward W.

Braves Likely To Make Few Player Changes MILWAUKEE (UP)—The world champion Milwaukee Braves won't “stand pat” in 1958 but the changes will be few. w That's the feeling after talking with General Manager John Quinn and manager Fred Haney. Haney put off contract talk a few days ago because of the World Series bedlam. He said rumors that he might quit because of illness were groundless. “I feel great,” said Haney. The only “problems”—riot serious yet—are in the pitching corps and possibly in the outfield if Billy Bruton’s injured knee doesn't, hold up next spring. Pitching May Need Help If Bruton is unable to play, the Braves will probably give one of their farmhand'— proUAUy serviceman Al Spangler—a job. The pitching staff, beaded by Warren Spahn and Lew Burdette, and including Bob Buhl, Bob Trowbridge, Don McMahon and Gene Conley, is not ready for the scrap pile. But it could use a little help. The likes of Taylor Phillips and Dave Jolly probably will be in the minors next season to make room for some of the prized rookie hurlers such as Carleton Willey and Joey Jay, two of the reasons Wichita won the American Association pennant. “There’ll be new faces at spring camp,” said Quinn, “but as of now I can’t say who they’ll replace. “We’re not looking to other major league teams. We have enough good veterans.” Haney and Quinn agreed that “determination” was the big factor in the Braves’ pennant victory and World Series triumph over the Yankees. “I don’t want to single out any particular player as the hero in the Series,’’ said Haney. “Everyone had a hand in it.” City Back T® Normal As the Braves’ brass got back down to earth, so did the city. To return to normalcy was costly for the taxpayers. The city sanitation department estimated the cost at $4,000 in cleaning up the tons of paper, beer cans and bottles that were strewn in the streets Thursday night in celebration of the Braves’ victory. Police arrests tripled, and one hospital nurse said the people it treated for minor cuts and bruises suffered in the crush of huihanity “felt no pain." A local psychiatrist summed up the whole celebration as a “mass orgy.” He said if Milwaukee were really mature it would seek other releases for its emotions like “going to the opera and reading great books.” — High School Football Kendallville 19, Columbia City 6.

Browns Favorites To Defeat Eagles By EARL WRIGHT United Press Sport® Writer The Browns, hoping to make their best National Football League start since 1953, are 7point choices to boost their record to 3-0 Sunday by defeating the Philadelphia Eagles at Cleveland. Although the Browns have won six Eastern Division titles in seven tries, the only time they swept their first three games was in 1953. The Browns, who missed the division crown for the first time last year, would like to match that 1953 campaign because they woe >ll straight that season before bowing to Philadelphia. 'Die Baltimore Colts, only other team with a perfect mark after two weeks of 1957 play, try to make the Green Bay Packets their third straight victim in a game at Milwaukee.

Yankees Plan Rosier Change For Next Year NEW YORK W) — Casey Stengel says don't get excited, help is on the way. "We know we got problems and we’re gonna do something about ’em,” the Yankee manager explained today. ~'i ‘ ... ; “They tell me we have a lotta talent on our farm clubs—Denver and Richmond — and if we can't get what we need there,, we may even make a deal.” Stengel said he would have a Hbarer picture of the Yankees’ outlook for 1958 after he conferred with General Manager George Weiss within the next few days. It is no secret, though, that Casey is looking for a left fielder. “I played a lot of guys there this year,” he said. "Some were fair and others didn't do so good. We might have someone in our organization who can do the job, or maybe even Tony Kubek.” Regardless .of whether Norm Siebern, a Denver graduate, or Kubek inherits the post, it certainly appears that veteran Enos Slaughter’s days with the Yankees are numbered. At 41. Slaughter still gives it the old college try but he doesn’t figure in Hie club’s long-range plans. Among the players they are willing to give up in a winter deal, are pitchers Don Larsen, Art Ditmar and Al Cicotte: infielders Andy Carey, Gerry Coleman, Harry Simpson and Joe Collins, and outfielder Slaughter The way matters stand now, the White Sox are eager for Carey; the Orioles are interested in Simpson, a'nd the Red Sox and Senators wouldn’t be adverse to making a deal for Larsen. Stengel won't say which players he is seeking but he has long fancied both Al Smith and Early Wynn of Cleveland, so don’t be unduly surprised if the Yanks and Indians ultimately negotiate some kind of package deal. "No matter what happens, f ain't at all worried about our club for nekt year,” Stengel said. “We’ won the pennant even with all those injuries, didn’t we. And you can’t exactly say we fell apart during the World Series.” — 90 Decatur Students At Concert Today About 90 students from Decatur high school attended the first of a series of three youth concerts presentedby the Fort Wayne Philharmonic orchestra in Fort Wayne this morning. Other schools in Adams county were also represented at the opening concert today.
